Bell Brass Snare

Famous quotes containing the words brass and/or snare:

    Thee for my recitative,
    Thee in the driving storm even as now, the snow, the winter-day
    declining,
    Thee in thy panoply, thy measur’d dual throbbing and thy beat
    convulsive,
    Thy black cylindric body, golden brass and silvery steel,
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    It is a snare for one to say rashly, “It is holy,” and begin to reflect only after making a vow.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 20:25.
